We worked together to make this piece of egg-shaped art using natural materials. What do you think?

In preparation for our egg hunt next week we made bird nests.  Firstly, we collected  natural materials.  After that we weaved and thread the twigs and sticks together in an attempt to made a cup shape.  When this was completed we lined our bases with softer materials such as moss, grass, reeds, leaves and feathers.  The reason we did this is because a nest is meant to insulate.  Then we placed our nests in the trees.

Today we had fun planting our seeds from the Woodland Trust.  We discussed our impact on using the woodland every week and decided that we can help limit our impact by planting seeds and aiding growth of plants onsite.

After the tarpaulin challenge the children wanted to make a shelter  so they could shade from the sun. What do you think of our first attempt at shelter building?

The Tarpaulin Challenge is to turn the tarpaulin over however the only problem is that all the children need to be standing on it. It was such fun to watch your great team work and communication.
